- Target market – is mostly comprised of Gen Y – what do we know about gen Y? Management – There is a significant drop in the number of 40-60 year olds. As the Baby Boomers retire, there may not be enough Gen X to fill the voids, meaning that Gen Yers will move into these positions at a younger age.
- Move on…
- Target Market – entirely Generation Y
- Baby Boomers almost all out of the picture. The void in the 40-60 year old range grows. Target Market has grown considerably in the last 10 years.
